multiple ppp connection on a single linux box
Hi all,
I am trying to manage traffick on a linux box connected to 2 different isps
using separate modems and phone lines. I desire to send traffick generated by
a specific user to pre allocated ppp link to that user.
say user 1 (500) 's generated traffick going only down ppp0
user 2 (501)'s generated traffick going only down ppp1
This is what I did and unfortunately it is not working
I have marked the pcket for each user using ip tables with 500 pakets marked
1 and 501 packets marked 2
then I created two routing tables user1 and user2 and added the respective
default route for each table ie
ip route add default via (ip1 ) dev ppp0 table user1
ip route add default via (ip2) dev ppp1 table user2
and finally add the two rules
ip rule add fwmark 1 table user1 table user1
ip rule add fwmark 2 table user2 table user2
Using the above was thought enough to get the thing working but helas not.
Any one has any idea why this is not working
Thanks
Michel Lambert
